Chapter 889
When the Dragon Queen rushed to Casterly Rock, Tyrion in the Red Keep finally got through the last tunnel.
"The black cell and the cellar are above. There are four layers in the cellar, and the cellar contains Balerion's skull." Tyrion wiped the sweat from his head and said weakly.
After learning about the extinguish sect tragedy at Casterly Rock, he with one's heart set on speeding home, wished he could teleport to Casterly Rock. But with Cersei in sight, he couldn't give up halfway, so he had to work hard, overdrawing mental strength and magic power to drive Wyrm to explore the way.
At least seven or eight hours earlier than the previous estimate.
"Are you okay, can you accompany me up there?" Jaime cheered up from exhaustion.
He's not much better than dwarf, and while he doesn't have to stay up all night to work, what happened at Casterly Rock and the ongoing war with King's Landing left him so anxious that he couldn't sleep.
"Don't worry, we'll take a two-hour break to restore mental strength before we can deal with the upcoming fight." Tyrion grabbed Jaime's arm and forced him to sit on the ground.
"Varys?" Tyrion called out to the cave.
Fat Eunuch went up to explore the way first.
For a while, the sound of long riding boots running on the slate ground from far to near, and the sound of Fat Eunuch's breathing gradually became clear.
"Seven Hells, Euron is crazy!" Varys' horrified shouts arrived before anyone could descend the stairs.
"Euron is crazy, he's filled his crypt with Wildfire canisters! Hundreds of tons." eunuch exploded with a big thunder.
"Euron is going to blow up the Red Keep?" Tyrion and Jaime suddenly stood up and shouted.
Fat eunuch shivered: "I've always wondered why Stannis' army wasn't attacked by a Wildfire.
I even wondered if Euron put the bigger picture first and kept it. Wildfire dealt with Others.
It turns out that the lunatic wanted to blow up the Red Keep and Stannis perish together after he was sure he couldn't hold King's Landing."
At the end, the panic on his face disappeared , his tone softened, and a look of thoughtful flashed in his eyes: As long as Stannis entered the Red Keep and ignited the Wildfire, the Lord of Light couldn't save him.
Seems worth a try?
“We have to get Cersei out of the Red Keep before it blows up,” Jaime anxiously said.
"No, I can't let Euron blow up the Red Keep!" dwarf waved his hands again and again and said with a serious expression: "If the Red Keep is bombed, we will not only lose a large number of Wildfires, but there will also be a huge gap in the King's Landing wall.
Also, in the Dragon Queen's strategy, even if King's Landing falls, the Red Keep and the Great Sept of Baelor will serve as nails to the southward passage of Others."
"You'll understand when you go up and take a look. There are too many to carry." Varys helplessly said.
"Notify Dragonstone. Raven is too slow, you send Church a letter and ask them to contact Dragon Queen with glass candles." Tyrion said.
Varys hesitated for a moment, nodded abruptly, "Okay."
He turned to Jaime again and asked, "How about you? With the Dragon Queen intervening, it seems that there is no need to go up and risk any more. ?"
"I don't think it's useless to be called Dragon Queen, Euron is about to blow up the Red Keep, why should you care about her? Or save Cersei first, I'm a must anyway." Jaime The tone was firm.
Tyrion thought for a while, and said, "Varys, wait a moment, we'll go up and explore the road first."
The wide tunnel is paved with slate, and there is a rattling sound when walking on it. , There are one-meter-high stone steps on both sides of the dark passage, on which are stacked the dragon skulls born after House Targaryen entered the Seven Kingdoms.
Like shrines, Priest Targaryen's gone glory.
At this time, the place where the yellow light of the horse lantern shines is no longer the black skull that swallows the light, but the deep green glass bottles neatly stacked in rows.
While walking, Tyrion had a feeling of stimulate in dragon's mouth.
"King's Landing should be more than Wildfire." Tyrion wondered at the end of the cellar.
"You're too little? These Wildfires are enough to make the Red Keep fly," Varys exclaimed.
"It's not about too much, we need to find out where the rest of the Wildfire is," Tyrion said.
“On the eve of the Battle of Winterfell, the Dragon Queen asked Randyll Tarly for 100 tons,” Jaime said.
"It still doesn't seem right..."
The two had already left the cellar while talking.
Red Keep has two floors, inner and outer, and the inner floor belongs to the royal family, including Queen Dowager's Tower, Maegor's Holdfast (for King and Queen), Maidenvault, and White Sword Tower. The outer layers belong to the ministers, such as Grand Maester's Crow's Nest, Hand of the King's Tower of the Hand (which has been burned by Cersei), the Judge's Chamber above the four layers of the dungeon, etc.
Between the inner and outer layers, there is a city wall and a moat that has been dry all the year round. A Rootbirth rusted iron gun is inserted on the wall, which is specially used to insert the traitor's head.
For example, the heads of Eddard and Winterfell hang on the tip of the iron gun on the inner city wall, and the classic scene where Joffrey forces Sansa to look at the father's head takes place there.
The problem now is that Maegor who built the tunnel is not a brainless person, secret passage can only enter the outer layer of Red Keep, such as Tower of the Hand and Crow's Nest.
Inner cities belonging to the royal family, such as Maegor's Holdfast and Queen Dowager's Tower, cannot be reached directly.
In the original, Tywin dies in the Tower of the Hand, in the outer layer; Varys wants to kill Kevan, but also has to trick him out of the royal inner city and kill him in the crow's nest in Grand Maester Pycelle.
Now, Tyrion and Jaime must cross that city wall.
Fortunately, the soldiers fought fiercely outside the city, and the guards inside the Red Keep were not strict, as expected.
In addition to the bronze gate on the front of the city wall, there are also some small side gates around.
At this time, Jaime began to be glad that oneself called dwarf.
Any door, locked or bolted, is defeated by the dwarf's two nimble fingers.
Along the way, they also dealt with seven or eight guards, and finally set foot on the stone steps of the Queen Mother's Building.
“Cersei, Cersei!” Jaime yelled anxiously as he ran up deng deng deng.
He and Tyrion dealt with two Ironmen at the entrance of Queen Dowager's Tower, but didn't find the Church Knight they should be.
Arrived outside the Queen Mother's bedroom, and even Sister Septa was nowhere to be seen.
Jaime became more and more anxious, and pushed the thick oak door hard, but failed to push it, and could only open the small window above, and immediately a faint stench rushed to the nose.
"Jamesm?" After calling and slamming on the door, a weak and hoarse voice like a female ghost came from the room.
"Cersei is me, I'm Jaime, I'm here to save you, how are you?" Jaime began to use his knees to hit the wooden door and hack the door lock with the Valyrian Steel Sword.
"Jaime, what are you doing, so loud?" Tyrion, who was standing downstairs on guard, cried out in surprise.
"No" The door lock was split open, the oak door opened, and with an oil lamp, he stepped into the dark and cold bedroom full of blood-reeking qi, Jaime broke down and wailed.
It seems that Mrs. Xianglin saw Ah Mao, who had a hole in his stomach and his internal organs had been eaten up in the firewood stack.
"Seven Hells!" The dwarf, who had rushed over to hear the sound, only glanced at it, then swearing and backing out.
"You come back and help her heal." Jaime stopped him.
Tyrion walked over helplessly, trying not to look at the bloody face that had suffered thousands of knives and the crotch that left a lot of salty and wet stains, and only put his hands on her and was bitten off. The exposed blue-purple chest and the white light flickering brought a touch of warmth and vitality to her.
"wu wu wu, is the Lannister of Casterly Rock exterminated?" Cersei's toothless mouth let out a mournful cry.
Jaime and Tyrion were stunned when they heard these unexpected words.
“How do you know that?” Tyrion asked.
"wu wu wu, Euron said Casterly Rock was useless, and said I was useless, wu wu wu... He couldn't oneself, so let the Ironmen take turns XX me.
Last night, they killed a lot of people, he said to use Queen to reward Warrior, boost morale, wu wu wu..."
"Beast! I'm going to kill him!" Jaime The eye socket cracked, the fingers clenched into fists clenched the epidermis, the slightest dull pain and blood oozing out, but he didn't notice it.
Because of anger and annoyance, it almost burst his chest.
Tyrion gloomy face asked: "What about Mammy Septa and Church Knight?"
"Knight was chopped up and fed to the dogs, and Septa Moelle was raped by the Ironmen, and they were in front of Mother Her face killed her, and the corpse was thrown into the sea by a trebuchet, saying it was to be given to the Drowned God."
Cersei said, his throat squirmed for a while, and the corners of his mouth overflowed with blood-stained yellow and white of fishy odor.
"Euron crazy?!" Jaime said in disbelief.
Cersei opened his blood-covered eyes, turned his eyes with difficulty, and tried to see the man next to him, his eyes that had been shedding tears became wet again.
"Euron hates Matthew for abolishing his magic power. He wants to blow up the Red Keep and blood sacrifice King's Landing. He said that after this vote, he will return to his hometown full of honor and wealth, he said. Just sit and watch in the Iron Islands and wait for the chance to rise again."
"Don't worry, we've found the Wildfire in the Red Keep cellar, and Euron won't get it." Jaime cupped her face , softly comforted.
"No, no, no! Don't look at me, don't look at me, please." Tears washed the blood from his eyes, and his vision became clear as if covered with a red veil, Cersei See clearly the handsome and handsome lover who is still as beautiful as in the dream, and at the same time see clearly the state of oneself at this time.
She broke down and burst into tears, pulling the straw quilt to cover the filthy body of oneself.
But she was tossed so hard last night that she had no strength at all and could only cry like a milk cat.
Tyrion's eyes were sore, and two drops of crystals flowed down. He quickly pressed the lion head button on his shoulder and covered her with the brocade cape embroidered with Red Dragon and Golden Lion.
She clenched the cloak tightly with both hands and pulled it up, trying to cover the whole oneself, but she wanted to see the child-like tearful man in front of her too much. So, she slowly pulled down again, leaving only one eye slit on the outside.
"Mother, why did you arrange such a fate for us, why?!" Jaime cried while hugging Cersei.
Tyrion was very sad, with tears on his face, but when he heard Jaime's wailing, he couldn't help showing a distorted smile: "Mother only left a copy of "Holy Scripture" to teach people He doesn't care what to do, how to do it, or the final result.
Don't doubt, this is what He said to me personally, she told me not to complain about fate, fate has nothing to do with her."
p>
Jaime ignored him, and Cersei just stared at Jaime.
"Jaime, you are so cruel, you left King's Landing for more than two years since the last quarrel, and you didn't even send me a letter, I got married, and you didn't come to me , you bastard!"
"I was arrested, I want to come back, but I can't get away!" Jaime cried.
"Who caught you?"
"I....I swear I can't say it!" Jaime's face was pained.
"You still want to lie to me? Did you hide and have a child with that very ugly person Brienne?" Cersei complained in tears.
Jaime...
